To Carnation,
It's Friday night and I'm in Portland. Kind of a drag, I know. I called Mignonne and she just told me that she got grounded from the phone because she quit her job. Appearantly her parents were very angry with her.

I don't Gary and Diane and they started preaching at me as if I were the one who quit my job. That bugs. First of all, I don't even have a job and second, if I did have a job, I most likely wouldn't take their advice about it, especially if they sat there and nagged at me. Please. If they had any brains in their heads they would realize that kids do not like to be preached at.

Another thing that bugs me is how Diane always yells at me about chewing on my hair. I know that it's discusting and I try to stop but she doesn't have to get all pissed. It's none of her business. At least my hair-chewing habit doesn't destroy brain cells.

Now if you do not mind, I will change the subject to the "men" in my life. No, I do not have a boyfriend. I'm just refering to all the guys that I happen to associate with. I do not like Evan. I think that week at Whistler kind of spoiled it all for me. Thank goodness I discovered that living with him is not great before I decided I wanted him to propose or something.

Connor is a pain in the butt. He's nice, but he's a pain, too. I really don't understand him. I don't think I like him in that way. Just for a friend.

I don't even know Curt so there's not much that I can say about him. I don't know if I believe Liz and Mikey when they say that he likes me because he never even talks to me. He just kindof ignores me.

The reason I doubt Liz is because, well, she's told me before that she thought people liked me but they were really just being nice.

I don't remember if I told you, but it turns out that Sam liked me and Tara at the same time. He only went for her (supposedly) because she was more forward than I. Tara admited to me that she was really jealous of me. I don't know why. I still think Sam's a bit young for her. He's 14 and she's 16!!

I know I'm not one to talk, I encourage a big age difference if it has anything to do with Christian Slater and me or actually me and any kind, decent guy of any age.

Now Samantha and Brandon like each other. He's pretty nice actually, but I don't know what he could possibly see in her. Yuck!

I have to sleep now. If I weren't for sleep, I could probably write another ten pages. Sorry!
